Thank you, mreposter, for giving me credit for having guessed [up to] five for which to anticipate (the ones on chs. 204, 232, 253, 271, and 304).

This is encouraging.

(Side note: I wasn't here yesterday [Friday 01.11.2013] because I'm sick with the flu. Didn't feel like turning on the computer. I'm not as bad today. But the news keeps reporting of an epidemic of flu in 47 states. So, I don't think I'm the only one at this site who has been hit.)

I'm always happy to see any HD station added since it will make plenty of people happy. I'm most happy with the addition of H2 since one of my favorite shows moved from HistHD....Ancient Aliens. I'm also happy with Cook; Food has way to many competition shows on there now. Thanks DirecTV....keep'm coming!!!!

Yes, I just Love to watch The Ancient Aliens and was Bummed out when it moved to H2 in Glorious SD but now we will have H2 in HD, HLN in HD for my wifey poo and The Cooking Channel for both of us!!! YAHOO!!!

Just a little related testimonial. . . I got off the phone with D* a few mins ago, after having accepted a new two year extension (our contract would have run out in a few months) related to some equipment upgrades. . . and my willingness to do both the upgrades and the contract extension were absolutely directly correlated to the happy news we've had in this (family of) threads the last several months.

Neither do I but D* will give me a credit for signing someone up for service. While not a new activation TheRatPatrol extended his contract directly from the news Sixto and SR provided. Ought to be worth something:D
